The CAAM also projected automobile sales in China to grow by 5% to reach 29.4 million units in 2017.

For instance, Toyota, BMW, Mercedes, and Volkswagen use faux leathers, which are similar to leather in both touch and feel. Leather usage is expected to decline in North America and Europe, owing to the strict emission and waste generation regulations prevailing in these regions.
